Al Gore and the 'climate change czar' Carol Browner are warning that if Congress doesn't pass climate change regulations, the courts will step in to do it.
"All of the discussion has been about the president and the Congress," Gore told journalists at a U.N. press conference Tuesday. "We have a third branch of government: the courts."
"The courts are starting to take control of this issue. If they were to follow this out, they would be setting the standards," Browner told reporters at a separate briefing in New York Tuesday. "Obviously, that’s not something that anybody wants….Everything is moving towards getting legislation done because it is the best way to do it."
In other words, do it or we will sick the courts on you. We know what's best, not you.
